What have done towards your prep?

[Straight Shooter]

Picked some blackberries and had some cooking apples given me ....turned them into blackberry n apple jelly ....Made six jars .

Cleared out the small poly tunnel except for the tomatoes (three plants) in readiness for ten 30 litre tubes some potatoes , onions , turnips and carrots for a late crop . The runner beans are coming to the end now but there is plenty put up in the freezer should see us until January / February .

Going to try the test rig aquaponics to grow through the winter .....will heat and light up the poly tunnel but will make some improvements with extra insulation it may well fail but I have to try and see if works with a range of different veggies .....I will use my spare solar array for the pump and lights / fan ......might even try some vertical growing ! .

Been thinking of taking the mini digger down to the bottom ground and cut in a roadway and switchback and move the hens there and add some ducks , pigs and maybe a goat there is plenty of room .....but the roadway is the first job ......I might have a play in the coming weeks .....fix bayonets men !
